Will you help the second President of New Japan defeat the insidious invaders in this 3DS shooter?

Because freedom, that's why.

The shooter, developed as a collaboration between Grasshopper Manufacture and Ni No Kuni studio Level-5, featuring animation by Studio Bones is out today on the Nintendo eShop. Based on the gameplay in the trailer, it looks like everyone assembled decided to go head-to-head with today's release of Zone of the Enders using an all-new IP.

There is precedent for badass commanders-in-chief fighting aliens: besides our own President Thomas J. Whitmore, there's always Metal Wolf Chaos to consider* with its President Michael Wilson, who like President Shoko, took on the enemy using a mech.
